& BREAKFASTS IN PRESCOTT, AZ |
|
| Prescott is a city in Yavapai
County, Arizona, USA. Locals prefer to pronounce the name PRES-skit. It
is also Arizona's official Christmas City.
 The
city is the county seat of Yavapai County. In 1864 Prescott was designated
as the capital of the Arizona Territory, replacing the temporary capital
at Fort Whipple. The Territorial Capital was moved to Tucson in 1867. Prescott
again became the Territorial Capital in 1877, until Phoenix became the
capital in 1889.
The towns of Prescott Valley
(7 miles east) and Chino Valley (16 miles north), and Prescott, together
comprise what is locally known as the "Tri-City" area. This also sometimes
refers to in general central Yavapai County, which would include the towns
of: Dewey-Humboldt, Mayer, Paulden, Wilhoit, and Wlliamson Valley. Combined
with these smaller communities the Tri-City area as of 2007 has a population
of 103,260. Prescott is the center of the Prescott Metropolitan Area, defined
by the U.S. Census Bureau as all of Yavapai County. In 2009, Yavapai County
was estimated to have 229,640 residents by the U.S. Census Bureau, making
Prescott the third-largest metropolitan area in Arizona, after Phoenix
(4.2 million) and Tucson (1 million).
Metro Prescott's four-season
climate is generally mild, owing to the altitude of 5,354 ft (1,632 m),
being significantly cooler than the lower southern areas of the state and
yet without the harsher winters found at higher altitudes.
The Yavapai-Prescott Indian
Tribe reservation is located next to, and partially within, the borders
of Prescott.
